A Prayer for Peace
Oh Father, on Thy great white ' throne, Hear, on hear our prayer; We have trust in thee alone. Oh, take u s to Thy careThou art a God of love, And will not pass us by; Answer us in Heaven c.oove— Answer now our cry! That Thou art no longer near, We’ve heard so many say, But we know and have no fear; Thou art our staff and stay. In days of old it was no task. To still the angry wave; And now, dear God, we agk, Our dear land to save; Many o’er the world to-day, Our petition share. Dear Father show us the way; Hear our earnest Prayer. Oh, God of battles, take command. And make all war to cease. Wilt Thou hold up Thy hand. And lead us on to peace. MARGARET McMILLAN, 1940. 28 Constable St. Newtown. Wellington
